How it works

Choose how much you'd like to save

You choose how much change you'd like to save, rounded up to the nearest $1, $2, $5 or $10. Then whenever you use your EFTPOS card and/or your Visa Debit card, or make an electronic payment, the difference between the purchase price and the rounding amount will be deposited straight into a savings account of your choice.

Choose your accounts

You choose which everyday account you'd like your payments made from, as well as the savings account(s) you'd like your change deposited into. You can have up to 10 savings accounts and they can be in your name or someone else's.

Choose the type of electronic transaction

You also choose which payment type you'd like Save the Change linked to - either EFTPOS and/or Visa Debit card payments on their own, or EFTPOS and/or Visa Debit card as well as other payment types such as direct debits and automatic payments (Save the Change is not available with credit card or online transactions).
